Search archive by keyword...

Published: 06 July 2018

In this Powwow with a Bow Wow we meet a dog with a blog (we love a bit of rhyming!): Buffa. Hello Buffa!

Name: Buffa
Age: 5
Lives: North London
What do you do? Make sure I get all the cuddles, love attention and food possible.
How long have you lived with your human? Since 13 weeks old
What’s your favourite pass time? Having my belly rubbed whilst sprawled upside down on the sofa
Where’s your favourite walking spot? Anywhere where there are squirrels in trees I can bark at and bounce around yapping excitedly.
What are your 'pet' hates? The cat that lives upstairs, and the bits of veg that my mom tries to hide in the chicken in my dinner, and being washed down with tomato ketchup when I have rolled in fox poo.
What do you like best about your human? When she gives me sausage for treats. Sausage is my favourite thing in the whole world.
Why do you think learning first aid for dogs was important to you? So my mom would know what to do if me or any of my pals get into a scrape or need emergency care.
What would be the most valuable piece of information a human could learn on the first aid for dogs course? Keeping calm in an emergency and how to do CPR and what to do if I am choking.
What qualities do you think are important in a dog owner? Love and attention. I know my mom really observes and understands me and thinks about how the world is for me and what is easy for me and what is hard. She is always there for me.
Who's your favourite famous pooch and why? Scooby Dooby Doo! He's so funny!
Which famous person would you most like to be walked by? Elvis 'cos I am a bit of a smoothie too!

I really enjoyed this course, the instructor was very friendly and I found it very informative. I'm a dog walker and feel that after being on this course I would feel more than confident if anything happened to one of the dogs. Well presented and good value for money, I would definitely recommend this course for all dog lovers.

For anyone who looks after a dog as a pet or in a professional capacity I highly recommend First Aid for Dogs! I feel much more comfortable knowing that I could do something to help them in different situations rather than not knowing what to do and feeling useless! Brilliant course!

It was really well explained, enjoyable and hands on. I really felt that I learnt everything in the event of an emergency. I would recommend all dog owners and people who work with dogs to do this course.

I thoroughly enjoyed this course, it was very informative and I learnt a lot. I'm a dog walker so found it beneficial but I would recommend taking this course even if you're a dog owner, you never know, you could save your dogs life one day.

This course is useful for anyone involved with dogs as a business or as an owner. I learned so much from the course and also some useful tips from other people on the course.

As a pet owner I found this course to be very informative and would highly recommend it to all dog owners. The instruction made it easy to understand.

Very pleased to have completed the canine first aid course with Julie and colleagues. It was a very informative morning, clearly delivered with lots of opportunity to practice and ask questions .
Highly recommended!

First of all this course is a must for any pet owner, just to take a few hours of your time can save your pets life. Very clear and easy to understand, hands on and not just watching. I am so glad i done this course, thank you!
